UPCOMING Harvard Social Anthropology Seminar Series: A Conversation with KAMALA VISWESWARAN & JENNIFER NASH

https://anthropology.fas.harvard.edu/event/social-anthropology-seminar-series-conversation-kamala-visweswaran-jennifer-nash


From the text chat:


Kaya Naomi Williams to Everyone (12:08 PM)

welcome everyone! just putting in the chat as well: please feel free to use the raise hand function to ask a question or type a question in the chat! we will be keeping an eye on both, and the floor is open for questions from minute one!

Me to Everyone (12:13 PM)

Thanks for this great conversation!


Am curious how the following wiki subjects for open teaching and learning at World University and School (and check out the CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare courses here, eventually for credit for free-to-students' degrees) - will emerge in each of ~200 countries' official and main languages (with faculty, and machine learning translation too) -

Niyoosha Ahmadikhoo to Everyone (12:17 PM)

Have you experienced being pigeonholed as an expert of “black feminist studies” or “south asian studies” (due to your identities) throughout your career? If so, what was your reaction?

Me to Everyone (12:46 PM)


Thanks, Jennifer, thanks! What might it mean further for Black Studies to “shape the university” - if this included writing it ethnographically, and thus building it out, - and with regards to CC-4 ocw.mit.edu wiki World Univ & Sch planned in each of ~200 countries, as major online universities for free-to-students’ degrees, and in all 7, 139 known living languages, each a wiki school for open teaching and learning (for speakers of each of these languages)? Thanks, Scott


Me to Everyone (1:12 PM)

Thanks, Kamala and Jennifer, Jarrett, for your thoughts about Black Feminist Presses, and how they've have played a central role in the development of all these related academic fields. Brainstorming-wise, how would a new Academic Press, seeking to incorporate the creation, the co-wiki-building too, of Ethnographic Field Sites, (STEM field sites too) and classrooms, best find form in Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth, TensorFlowAI - TEXT-IN-THE-SIDEBAR particularly - and with Translate, with Realistic Avatar Bots (post Samsung Neons, aka artificial humans) … and to publish both to paper, as well as in a new digital virtual earth book format, in all 7,139 known living languages? http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html Thanks, Scott (~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook  ~

re "Naked Harbin Ethnography" book, 2016, Academic Press at World Univ & Sch too)?


Me to Everyone (1:15 PM)

How might wiki teaching and learning might be a far-reaching form of non-disciplinarily, or un-disciplinarily, … and even in all 7,139 known living languages, each as wiki schools, and even with machine learning translation? Thanks, Scott


Me to Everyone (1:18 PM)

(where Wiki creation of new subjects opens so many new possibilities - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects)


Me to Everyone (1:31 PM)

Great and fascinating conversation (ethnographically identity-wise, a word (re Manuel Castells’ middle book in his information age trilogy, “The Power of Identity”) which wasn’t mentioned, I think, re Black Feminist Studies too). Thanks so much! - Scott (sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org - and how best to carry on this conversation?

How can information technology help with Black Feminist Theory / Studies’ institution building, I wonder?


Thank you, everyone.

Thank you for this wonderful conversation, Kamala and Jennifer. Thank you for organizing, Kaya, Mala, and Sebastian.

Ma, 

How are you? How's your reentry going? And how was your day? Nice to talk to you last night, and from the UU Church of Kensington Berkeley on a lovely evening.

Just gave a second lesson to Taylor on a Monday ... Slightly curious ... Not sure why exactly he changed it to a Monday evening (exercise and with a coach apparently), but he was being slightly not good (kind of like an 'a-hole') ... and why? We'll see how things proceed but I could conceivably not give lessons to him in the future if things have changed, and somehow aren't going well for him (is it a lack of harmonious thinking from a new sports' coach?) For awhile he was away from the screen, and showing a red cushion on his chair, a little like what Ed was sitting on on Thanksgiving. Not sure if they're in communication, - and even regarding Canyon and Taylor's previous law firm in SF, Locke Lord, or what. Hoping Ed is doing well ... but I don't see him much. Was glad he and David Thurston came to Thanksgiving with you Annie Sandy Alden and Cathy and All ... 

But would like to provide social support to both of Ed and Taylor if they're living in difficult somehow lonely times or lives or even milieus culturally somehow ... And am not sure how, given my possible aloneness as well as theirs. But I recall George's focus on individuals and individualism and re agency (intentional action of individuals) ... which I appreciate ... and wonder whether I might share The Desiderata with each of them in these regards - too  https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html.

What do you think?

Would like to develop Rock Piobaireachd Blues' Laments as machine learning band and for myself and him and others and from Open Band, potentially in the New Year (re calling for abolition for ex.) ... that 'rocks' but am seeking the machine learning expertise and a possible collaboration even.

On with seeking to record my next SSP album of Piobaireachd ... as experiments in learning to play this great music.

What are you up to this week?  

Love, 
Scott

Ma,

Had also attended a Harvard Social Anthropology Seminar from noon to 1:45 partly about Black Feminist Studies and Theory, and re the following subjects I posted in Group Text chat as part of the conversation, and while interesting (and I'm a progressive too and familiar with some of the precursors to this thinking (at Reed College and beyond), I also have issues with feminism, and I didn't entirely connect with the two main speakers. Yet networks for Work World University and School and at the Academic church of Harvard have merit.

I wonder somehow if Taylor and or Ed tuned into my participation in this, and whether that could have informed Taylor's behavior ...

Could speaker Kamala Visweswaran even know US vice president (and both be of India-Jamaican heritage?) of same first name (and re illegal sex industry?) And could speaker Jennifer Nash know Ed's sister in law, also a bit like eldest daughter somehow? (Speculatively ...?) But could they also help with building out Work World University and School? Diversity questions will grow with WUaS ... Time to get the Minutes for WUaS Monthly Business Meeting out ... These folks aren't necessarily meditators, and are also academics with intellectual agendas which may also include career creation for academics. Will see what unfolds ... 

Glad you are back home safely! And re an ongoing calling for abolition of the illegal sex industry internationally ... which all of these folks might support ethically, yet not having thought about the cultural or legal or law enforcement implications, or changes re the Anti-slavery act or the Emancipation Proclamation re implications ... even as such Abolition movement would free a lot of people and well into the future.

Love, Scott
